Overview
Winged Beast type usually represent creatures of flight, such as birds or bats, as well as other similar mythical creatures, such as harpy, griffin, and other winged creatures that does not fall under the Dragon, Fiend, or Fairy category. Some monsters who have a power of wind manipulation but does not have a wing (such as "Raiza the Storm Monarch") also falls under this category. The majority of Winged Beast monsters are WIND, but there are also several DARK Winged Beast archetypes, such as "Blackwing" and "Raidraptor".
Historically, Winged Beast monsters (especially the lower-Level ones) usually have relatively low stats compared to the other Types, but is mostly compensated by its non-destruction removal effects. Typically with their bouncing effect to return the opponent's card to their hand and/or extra deck. Low-Level Winged Beasts were mostly capable at swarming the field or aiding its High-Level counterparts, while High-Level Winged Beast either have a strong protection (such as being immune to card effects) or a powerful removal effect.
Additionally, Winged Beast often shared their support with the Beast and Beast-Warrior types, thus allow some hybridization between the three Types. This is most evident thanks to the "Tri-Brigade" and "Fire King" archetypes.
